| Description of the problem | I have a 05 dodge ram 1500 with hemi eng. About 6 months ago it starting stalling from time to time. Usely when i slow down to stop the eng shut off. It will restart but not normal, i have to push the gas pedal down, its starts up and is ok for days. If i am above 60 mph when it malfuction it will start surging and i shift to nutural and riv the eng up and put it back in drive and its ok again . I am below 60 mph when malfuction occures the eng quits. The tem is always below 50 degrees. Took to dodge dealer they charge me 66 dallors to tell me they could not determ the problem . And they would not let me talk to their machanics . If i could talk to them we might could figure out the problem, i suspect it has something to do with the electronic throttle control. |
